“Trust, transparency and respect in therapy”

Verified by Kyan

About Світлана

I am a psychologist and psychotherapist with more than 10 years of experience in individual, couple and group therapy. I work with individual clients, couples and groups, including young people from 14 to 19, adults from 20 to 64, and people aged 65 and over. I also work with LGBTQ+ people. People come with questions of parenthood, expat life, sleep, relationships, grief and loss, work and career, and divorce or break-up.

I completed a master's degree in psychology at Kyiv KROK University in 2019. My psychotherapy training was at the Ukrainian Psychotherapy University, and I finished it in 2023. I am certified in person-centred therapy. I base my practice on the psychotherapeutic ethical code and on regular supervision. I am in Warsaw, I work online only, and I am taking new clients.

For me, the key is contact between the client and the therapist, based on trust, transparency and respect for the client's personality and experiences. Through this relationship, a client learns to look again at the reality of their life, to trust themselves, and to keep better contact with their real needs and wishes. I work in a person-centred and humanistic way, and I also offer supportive psychotherapy and marital and family therapy.

How Світлана works

I am certified in person-centred therapy, and this is the base of my work. I also practise humanistic therapy, supportive psychotherapy, and marital and family therapy.

The key for me is contact between the client and the therapist. It is based on trust, transparency and respect for the client's personality and experiences. Through this relationship, a client learns to look again at the reality of their life, to trust themselves, and to keep closer contact with their real needs and wishes.

I work with individuals, couples and groups. An individual session lasts 50 minutes. A couple session lasts 80 minutes. I work online only. I follow the psychotherapeutic ethical code and I am in regular supervision.

Approaches

General information from Kyan about each method, not a description of how Світлана works.

Person-centred therapy

Person-centred therapy, developed by Carl Rogers, starts from the idea that you are the expert on your own life. The therapist offers warmth, empathy and genuine attention without steering the conversation, so you can explore what matters to you at your own pace. Many people find it helps them feel heard and grow in confidence and self-understanding.

Humanistic therapy

Humanistic therapies see every person as capable of growth and focus on the whole person rather than a diagnosis. They value the relationship between client and therapist, your own experience and your right to make your own choices. Person-centred, gestalt and existential therapy are among the best-known humanistic approaches.

Systemic & family therapy

Systemic and family therapy looks at difficulties in the context of the relationships around you: your family, partner, work or friends. Patterns between people, rather than one person alone, become the focus of the work. It can be used with individuals, couples and whole families.
